'Expresso'?
In the cafe scene between Furious and Tre's mother, Furious asks for 'cafe au lait' with his ex-wife asking for an 'expresso' (as opposed to an espresso). Is Singleton trying to make some oblique point about people - of whatever colour - from 'challenging' backgrounds trying to sound sophisticated but not quite getting it right, thus exposing their aspirational behaviour having such shaky foundations?
